Summary

[edit]
Description A blank map of Ohio and adjacent state's counties. Every county's object in this SVG has its FIPS code in the object id field, with the county name and 2-letter postal state abbreviation in the label field. In cases where there is a county in a state that also has a county-equivalent city of the same name, the word "County" is appended to the county name. In all other cases, "County", "Parish", "Borough", or other county equivalent is omitted from the name. As SVG files are easily parseable and readable text files, it is fairly simple to write a program or script that creates a copy of this map with the color of certain counties based on some datum, such as population density, e.g. Much such data includes FIPS codes, which provides an easy and fool-proof way to identify the associated SVG object in the map.

The source code of this SVG is invalid due to 517 errors.
 
This W3C-invalid map was created with Inkscape.
This map is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: Removed all states/counties not in Ohio or adjacent states. The original can be viewed here: USA Counties with FIPS and names.svg. Modifications made by GeraldEdwardButler.

  NOTE: This was created by removing all the counties in states other than Ohio and the adjacent states from File:USA Counties with FIPS and names.svg. Also, all State borders in the Original not part of Ohio or Adjacent States were removed as well. The remaining was rotated 5 degrees clock-wise to make the overall appearance less slanted. This change was done with a simple SVG transformation which should be able to be undone with an SVG editor (or XML editor) without compromising the integrity of the original vectors. All of the editing was done with Inkscape SVG Editor.
